Not taking any chances, I’ll go ahead and put you on my ignore list.

This had me laughing like a loon. Sounds like some horribly misguided charity.

On my ignore list: People named Haylee or Cayleigh or anyone with a similar-sounding name, Paris Hilton, those two squirrely little twin female TV actresses with the raccoon eye makeup, Ben Bernanke, Jonah Goldberg, Terrell Owens, Buck Owens, “Dharma” Buck Roeser and Heath Ledger.

At this time I only have about three people on my ignore list, whose mule-headed self-absorbed idiocy is so vast that I hate them with the burning intensity of a million suns, for ever and ever, until I forget what the hell it was they said in the first place. Then I will take them off. So … like a month.

Some of them go back on immediately, of course…

I’ve decided to ignore every other post of yours I read, so I’m afraid I can’t respond to the above.

A sargeant gets word that the mother of one of the privates in his platoon has died, and he’s given the duty to tell the private the bad news. So he assembles his platoon on the parade ground, and says: “Everyone who’s mother is still alive, take one step forward. Not so fast, Private Smith!”

And I’ve never used my ignore list.

With interpretation skills like that, I’d say you’ve got some potential to be a mod here.

Everyone but me-the board is much, much better that way. 😉

Seriously, no one. I’m far, far too curious to put anyone on. Even the really, REALLY annoying ones, like **lekatt**.

So you’d… what? PM somebody to tell them they were on ignore?

If you tell someone that he is on your ignore list … how would you know if they know about it?
